End of year and the boat goes away until spring - a sad day for sure. Part of the fall ritual is to clean up the boat from the remnants of a fishing season including a wide range of plastics which accumulate in the back of the boat. This year looks like twister tails and senkos ruled the day.

Rain doesn't stop serious fishermen from fishing so despite the rain, fishing we went.
